84-year-old Bruno, an irrepressible fighter with slender legs, has been Italy's pioneering 'liscio' dance teacher. He has spent his entire life in the dance hall and, as he sees his world fading, he refuses to give up.
Assisted by an eclectic elderly gang - including a seasoned singer, a passionate elderly couple, and a former playboy on an eternal quest for true love - Bruno does his utmost to keep the flame alive.
For Bruno and his friends, liscio isn’t just a dance, it's their antidote to loneliness. And the 'balera' is not merely a dance hall, it's their happy place. But all of this might soon cease to exist.
